MeSH definition : A MutS homolog protein and component of post-replicative DNA MISMATCH REPAIR. It forms
a heterodimer with MUTS HOMOLOG 2 PROTEIN (MSH2) and recognizes large insertion-deletion
loops up to 13 nucleotides in length. This directs downstream events such as strand
discrimination, excision, and resynthesis.;
